You're comparing apples to oranges here.
Women who join escort agencies know they are providing sexual services.
Guys who were working at Abercrombie and Fitch, which I'm sure were not all gay guys btw, were not agreeing to sex when they attended promotional events and/or parties.
Its also morally repugnant, or at the least highly unethical, for a CEO of a large company who holds significant power and trust, to be dicking his male models. If the Board condoned such an act, by looking the other way, shame on them.
I know no such thing about those joining escort agencies.
When I see an escort agency, the agency usually just describes time and companionship.
Seeking Arrangement is very anti-sex. The ladies are supposed to be dined and taking shopping all the time by older suitors. If they discover a discussion of sex, people get banned. Surely there is no sex occuring there, or discussion of sex outside those who meet on that platform?
I can certainly see the U.S. prosecutors taking precedent from these types of cases and applying them elsewhere.
And we would all like to think Canada would never follow the U.S., but in the charging of one wealthy Canadian executive who was accused of meeting ladies through means similar to Epstein, the government made a big deal out of the fact that he had a permanent suite at a Montreal hotel and young ladies came to see him. One of the housekeepers supposedly asked him about it and he said they were nieces. She later remarked to him that he sure had a lot of nieces.
Of course that has nothing to do with Johns. None of us ever receive the sex worker at our hotel room. Perish the thought.
The bottom line is that the general public would view most Johns the same as Mike Jeffries, especially after reading the reviews. They would just think of one John known as The Terb Guy. We say, hey, the women are well-compensated, which they are. We are great guys, which we are.
But hell, maybe the hottest gay guys at Abercrombie were well compensated for fucking at the elaborate gay orgies, too. Just like the Hooters servers with the best attitudes and best breasts get the best tips. These ain’t companies curing cancer. They are selling niche clothes and serving chicken wings.
I just don’t see the government‘s place here. I see a darker picture of morality on the right and the irritating tendency of the left to always find some unfairness and power imbalance that supposedly the courts can fix. And the always darkness of the law profession where they can get a third of the bounty by raiding a rich guy who had an active sex life with consenting partners, until the government and lawyers said: You are a victim entitled to Money Damages.
